Convicted double cop killer Anthony Bottom is being paroled in Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) New York.
WCBS 880 reports that Bottom and two other members of the Black Liberation Army ambushed NYPD Officers Joe Piagentini and Waverly Jones by using a fake 911 call to get them to come “to a Harlem housing complex,” where they were shot dead.
Jones was killed with a single shot to the back of the head while Piagentini was shot 22 times, begging for his life during the attack.
Piagentini’s widow, Dianne Piagentini, said that when she learned of Bottoms’ parole it hit her “like a punch in the gut.”
“He needed to stay behind bars. For what he did, he should’ve been behind bars for his life,” she said.
Dianne added, “Gov. Cuomo has now seen fit to release a cop killer into New York State society. This is what Gov. Cuomo releases into society and thinks that he is rehabilitated? At his trial, he said, there is no rehabilitation for me.”
Police Benevolent Society president Pat Lynch also commented on Bottom’s parole, saying, “In the last three years, [there are] 16 cop killers that are now walking our streets, so I was not surprised that once again they’re going to do that. But what makes you so angry is you know there’s a police family that’s now devastated once again, but a family that’ll fight this, and will continue to fight this.”
PIX 11 News reports that Bottom “now goes by Jalil Abdul Mutaqim.” He is scheduled to be paroled no later than October 20, 2020.

As much as i despise Cuomo, he has no power to grant parole to anyone. Under NY law, the power to grant parole is vested in an independent parole board consisting of 19 members appointed by the governor and approved by the state senate for a six year term. Most of the current board was approved by the senate when it was controlled by RINOS.
Maybe he will commit suicide by shooting himself 5 times in the back of his head
I wonder if a go fund me site would encourage that.
Not if it’s a Rat.
I must have Jones and Piagenetti mixed up with two other officers killed in the line of duty. As I recall it, Jones and Piagenetti were on foot patrol somewhere on the lower East Side. Their assassins watched them for several days before ambushing them from behind. Waverly Jones had both eyeballs shot out as he lay dying on the sidewalk whereas Piagenetti only had one shot to the back of the head. I believe that the original plan was for them to have a joint funeral mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral but Piagenetti’s family opted for a service at his home parish.
“Will blame Trump if he commits another cop murder; then he also might have some sort of accident.”
Splain to me why you will blame Trump??
These leaders who make these bad decisions never suffer anything from what they do. I hope that the guy does go to his house and mistakes him for a cop or maybe one his family members homes.
What does that say about those that vote for him?
Rhetorical question, of course.

No matter what happens in the US the Democrats and liberal media always find it’s somehow Trump’s fault; also it was sarcasm.
